Chaptered by Secretary of State - Chapter 865, Statutes of 2026.
Summary
Starting in the 2026‑27 school year, California school districts, charter schools, community colleges and the CSU system must try not to hold first‑day classes, graduations or other required events on dates that many community members observe as religious, cultural or ancestral holidays, and must seek input from affected groups. State agencies must also make reasonable efforts to avoid holding public meetings on those dates, and local legislative bodies are encouraged to do the same. The bill aims to improve public participation and equity for diverse communities.
